Akshay Kumar's Toilet: Ek Prem Katha opens on a good note!

Shannon Gibbs

Akshay Kumar-starrer "Toilet Ek Prem Katha" which is happened to be one of the much-awaited movies of the year, has opened up on a good note at the box office and is expected to get a further boost during Independence Day. Released in over 3000 screens in India, Toilet Ek Prem Katha witnessed 30-35 per cent occupancy on the first day. The movie is released with a lot of expectations and also on a very grand scale. Sat and Sun look better. It features the story of Keshav (Akshay Kumar) and his wife Jaya (Bhumi Pednekar), set in two villages near Mathura. "#TEPK", Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted. The surprisingly low collection in the box office for Jab Harry Met Sejal is primarily because the Imtiaz Ali film received a lot of mixed review from the audience. The film has started on a good note in smaller towns where it holds promise, but it had lukewarm response multiplexes in metros, where the film goers can not relate to the subject dealt in the movie.

The movie hit the theatres on Friday and is directed by Shree Narayan Singh, it also stars Bhumi Padnekar opposite Akshay Kumar in the lead role. Akshay's previous films too have opened with similar numbers in the past whether it is Jolly LLB 2 (Rs. 13.20 crore) or Rustom (Rs.14.11crore) and Housefull 3 (Rs.15.21 crore). The film is termed as a satirical comedy film which is inspired by PM Narendra Modi who started the Swatch Abhiyan to improve sanitation conditions in India.
